Through the study of this text, I explore the role of social context and configurations of power in the way premodern Islamic theological discourses have been formulated. In particular, I look at how, in a situation of power imbalance, members of a maligned minority group have pretended to renounce what the majority might have found offensive, while actually trying to renounce as little as possible. |
